Excuse the pettiness, I should probably just be grateful they're shown on terrestrial TV, but I find it interesting/typical that #STV is showing the England games, but it isn't showing the #Scotland games. I can understand England not showing the Scotland games on ITV1, but isn't STV meant to be Scotland's channel?

Not only was the Scotland v Poland game relegated to ITV4, the programme including commentary was 2 hours 20 mins.

Today's England game is on STV and is on 3 hours and 15 mins.

@paulb3017 STV and BBC Scotland mainly exists to show Scotlandshire that it is a small region of England.

It isn't for the people of Scotland, at all. Mainly, it is against them.

I am surprised that you are surprised

@svgeesus

I know the BBC has a pro-unionist agenda, but I suppose I assumed without thinking too much about it that because STV is an independent broadcaster based in Scotland it would have more autonomy.

Now I know different, I guess, and I'll view it in the same light as the BBC, and channels 4 & 5 too (with their constant sycophantic Royal programming) - all reinforcing the idea that Scotland is best viewed as a region governed by England rather than a country in its own right.
